Fair use rationale

• does not detract from the value of the text, or the copyright holder's ability to make further profit from it.
• Because the image is provided at a low resolution inappropriate for re-printing, its usage on Wikipedia does not pose a problem of aiding media piracy.
• this is only a very small portion of the text: one frame out of thousands.
• displays an iconic, regular setup.

This image is a screenshot of a copyrighted television program. As such, the copyright for it is most likely owned by the company or corporation that produced it. It is believed that the use of a limited number of low-resolution screenshots for identification of and critical commentary on the television program and its contents on the Main Page, hosted on servers in the United States by the GSD, qualifies as fair use under the Copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on the GSD or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. Fair use https://www.thegoonshow.co.uk/wiki/index.php?title=File:Administrative_Affairs.jpg true
